Giveaway, NEW Kits & Wool!!!

Tis' the Season... It's LUCKY" Friday Holiday edition!!  I'm wanting nothing more then to "make it merry" for some of my amazing bb peeps!!  This week, I have the NEW Winter Simply Vintage magazine & the most gorgeous Holiday colored wool bundle up for grabs over on our Facebook page!  Both of these, along with NEW Kits & Patterns are NOW on the website under Shop Online, NEW! Patterns & Kits!  Quantities are limited!  Oh- I also kitted up around 24 more Truck Full of Joy kits as I know many of you are waiting for those!!!  The Barn Event Snowman Heart {Exclusive} is also available as a kit on the website!  Head over there for a Jolly Ol' time!!!  www.buttermilkbasin.com

This week we were "happy little elves" at the shop!  We were excited to bundle up patterns & kits to be given as gifts!  We even had husbands, daughters & friends ordering for gifts!  Talk about the perfect gift!!!  I'd LOVE to have my sock filled up with patterns & wool!!!!! 🎄🎄🎄

On the home front... No "Holiday Magic" has happened YET this week!No elves have baked, decorated or wrapped... The only action here seems to be deliveries left at the door, cats playing around the tree & messes made in the kitchen, while I'm at work!  Starting after work {today} I will start decking the halls!!!  Better late, then never!  Next year- I am starting in July!!!!  OR I could just keep my decorations up all year long!!!! 😂😂😂 What do you think?!?!

Oh...  I have exciting NEWS!  Today I rented two spaces!  One will be for.... MARK your CALENDARS... An {After Market Party}!  Each spring we design & exhibit at the International Quilt Market!  This year we plan on sharing that excitement with you!  We will have a "pop up shop" here in the Twin Cities right after market!  We will have make it take its and much more!   

Then we rented a NEW space for the {BARN} Event!  I will be switching the name, because it will not be in a barn this year {unless I find one to buy between now & then}!!!  It will still be over the top & amazing (with new fun things added) and the new location is awesome!  It is right here, close to the shop!  That also means it will only be about 20-25 minutes from the airport for those of you who fly in!  And there are hotels, food & shopping galore here in the Twin Cities!  We have so many new ideas & concepts for this event!  I can't wait!  If you have any "new name" suggestions... Let me know!  

Ok... One more thing!  I loved all the comments & suggestions last week about the new Mystery project for next year!  So many great ideas... I'm keeping them all in mind!  I have decided on the project!  The funny part... It was my husband's idea!  {I hate to admit it!!!! Lol}  I LOVE the idea and I am thrilled to be able to offer it to you VERY SOON!!!  So much fun & excitement going on here at the Basin, I can hardly stand it gals!!!!  Can I mention again how much I love YOU all & love what I do!!!!  Make it a merry & bright weekend!  Don't forget to comment on our FB page!  I want you to win these goodies to put in your sock!!!!!!!  HO, HO, HO... Santa Stacy!🎅🎅🎅🎄🎄🎄

What could the FINAL Mystery Block be?!?

SEW excited!!!!!  The FINAL "Mystery" BOM is revealed!!!  It is darling!  I can't think of a better block to wrap up our BOM with, then with this sweet little snowman mitten fellow~!  How cute is he?  Please head over to our website www.buttermilkbasin.com and click the link and print off your FREE pattern!  Kits are also up on the website under shop online, Mystery BOM and are ready to ship!  If you order THIS week, you can have it to stitch over the Holidays!  If you have enjoyed our FREE bom, we would LOVE it if you would follow our blog, like our FB page &/or share our company with your peeps!!!  If you follow us on FB...,We're still hoping to hit 10K before we ring in the new year!  You know we are going to celebrate when that happens!!!    Get ready gals!!!!

Finishing Instructions:  Since the Holidays are around the corner and we will be taking time off from Dec 21st - Jan 4th... to spend time with family & the girls... we thought we would wait and share it next month with you as we start a new {undecided} monthly project!  We would LOVE to hear what you would like me to design for you starting in January!  I really had such a blast designing, giving back and sharing this with you each month... I know you all enjoyed it, too, very much!  Plus... I would miss you all waaayyy toooo much!!!!  I really looked forward to our monthly meet-ups at the Basin!

Hope this makes your day MERRY & BRIGHT!!!!!!  Oh, don't forget to share your work with us here on our FB page and check us out on Instagram #buttermilkbasin!!!! HO HO HO... Happy Holidays!!!!!!!  Stacy!  

Pattern Giveaway, NEWS & More

Are we ready for "LUCKY" Friday pattern giveaway over on our FB page?!?  I felt like Santa sending out lots of products to the LF winners this week!!!  I love it!  Check those mailboxes... Lots of goods are on the "sleigh" heading your way!!!  

Before I go any further... I can't wait to share this fantastic NEWS with you!  I know many of you have been waiting with anticipation for new fabric line(s) from me!!  Well... I'm so excited to finally be able to make that happen with a new, reputable company, many of you know and love!  I am so excited... I'm blessed to be given opportunities to work with people who believe in & support my vision!  Great things are on the horizon gals... I LOVE fresh starts!!!!

Ok... I did it!  I got out all your goods but 5 orders (waiting on wool for kits)!!! I am old school and manually do everything...which also means going to the post office to ship them!  The postmasters have been soooo awesome about working with the volume of my packages {twice a day} for the last 2 weeks!  I'm so grateful!  I'm bringing them a treat tomorrow since they graciously put up with totes & totes of orders to ship and even thanked me for being so great/easy to work with!  So sweet!  And on that note... I don't know how the postmasters do it during this hectic time of year!!!  I can't believe how impatient & not polite folks are!  I say spread good cheer & make it merry!!!  So big thanks to the Fridley PO crew!  You guys ROCK!!!!

This weekend I'll be putting up more kits & the new Simply Vintage magazine online!  I had to cut more kits {since our lovely website oversold the quantity I put available}!  So while I was cutting... I cut more kits for the Truck Full of Joy pattern, that sold out right away!  So be sure to keep an eye out this weekend for that along with more goodies!!!  I also cut more BOM, Snowmen Sock and Americana Crow on Spool kits... those are available now!

Thanks for making my Sunday last weekend over on our FB page!  Your comments were awesome!  I felt so much better when I realized I wasn't the only one who hadn't put the tree up yet!  I tell Ya- I shouldn't even look on Instagram or Pinterest...  Some have been posting their Holiday decorating for weeks!!!  How do they to it????  I'm just happy we got the tree up & decorated!!!!  Yeehaw!!!!  So that's my "holiday" update!  Keep sharing your pics!  I love seeing them so much!!!

In family news... Grace went ice skating for the first time and loved it!  Then both girls went to the KDWB 2015 Jingle Ball concert!  They had a great time and seen a variety of artists!  Then tomorrow I'm taking a day off, having lunch with my hubby & then we're hitting a movie....and I'm going to a Christmas Event at church with my friend Shelly!!!  Should be a great start to the weekend!!!  

Hope you all have a fantastic Friday & weekend!!!  Please pop me a comment or a pic over on our FB page for a chance to win these patterns!   Wonder what you've been up to!  I'm betting it's finishing up those Christmas gifts, baking cookies & spreading good cheer!!!!!  

Before I go... Here's a great, quick & easy holiday snack mix recipe for you!  It's called Christmas Crack!  It's delicious!!!!!  Enjoy!

Road Trip Part One... Could it be Santa?!?

Happy Monday everyone!  What a fantastic weekend I had!  For starters, the weather was gorgeous!   {So nice we didn't have to wear our winter coats!!!}  What better time to hit the road!!!  Time to head over to St. Cloud, to pick up some props I purchased!  

Our first stop on our trip was at Nelson's Truck Stop!  Let me tell you... they have the largest, homemade & fresh bakery goods you ever did see!  The items of choice were, a cinnamon roll & an apple fritter {plus a couple for the fam back home!!!}.

Then we went to a couple gift shops!  And look who we were greeted by?  It was none other then the man in the red suit!!!  Santa was sweet and even took a selfie with me!  AND...I told him how good all my BB pals have been... so you better get your socks out!  He could be coming down your chimney with goodies just for you!!!!  You never know!!!

The shops smelled amazing!  Fresh pine & berries were tucked in here and there while candles were lit, all aglow!  Snowmen, Santas & reindeer were all around!  Shoppers were excited, lines were long... but you could tell the Holiday Magic was in the air!!!  To be continued....

Our LAST Day on the Christmas JOY Blog Hop & "Mystery" BOM 11 Reveal!

Welcome everyone to a {BIG} day here on the Basin Blog! 
Not only will we be sharing our complimentary Christmas JOY design here on the blog, but we will also be revealing our 11th block in our "Mystery" BOM!  If you are not following along on that... you are welcome to join us!  We have been having a great time!!!  It is complimentary and kits are available to purchase each month!  And... we are also offering a limited number of kits available to purchase on our website of our darling "Snowman Sock" hop design as well as offering a great "Holiday Special" just for fun!!!  We want to do our best to make sure your Holiday Season will be {merry & bright}!!!!!

 

                 

 

What a delightful hop this has been!!!  As I mentioned before, we've had a fantastic array of designs featuring snowmen, mittens, trees to trucks... We've had some talented designers stitch, hook & appliqué their designs just for you!  I don't know of any other blog hop that has such kind designers who gather together to give you a great variety of designs, tidbits & recipes like ours!  I'm thankful to know them, appreciate their talents and want to give them ALL a HUGE "thank you" for making this hop possible!  You guys rock!!!!  

Before we start rocking around the Christmas tree.... I'd love to share my design for the hop with you!  Since I am a Minnesotan, and we have no snow {yet}... I couldn't resist making something with a snowman on it!  Here is my little Snowman Sock for you all to enjoy!  He whips up quick and easy!  If you'd like to order a kit, hop over to the website and click shop online!

                                      

Here is the link to "click and print" both designs shown on today's post!!!  It is also on my homepage of my website!

http://siterepository.s3.amazonaws.com/2457/block_11_and_candy_cane.pdf

Snowman Sock Instructions:

1.  Using your favorite wool appliqué method, cut out each wool piece as shown in picture.

2.  Make sure you cut out a front and back sock.  {You will need to reverse one sock unless you don't care which side of the wool you use}.

3.  Position wool pieces on top of sock.  {Set back sock aside}.

4. Use coordinating floss to blanket stitch around each piece securing them in place.  You will need to stitch carefully around the scarf piece that goes off the sock, as it will be a single layer.

5.  Use 2 strands of green floss to stitch greenery on hat and 4 strands of red floss to make 3 French knots for berries.

6.  Put front and back of sock together and blanket stitch around entire sock using coordinating floss where you change wool pieces.  Example: Gold for the toe of sock.

7.  Sew 2 tiny black buttons on for eyes and 3 1/4 inch buttons down front of snowman.

8.  Attach a cord to hang ornament.  Enjoy!!!!

Up next is the 11th block of our super exciting monthly "Mystery" BOM!!!  As you can see, I have decided to do 12 blocks!  Just couldn't stop!  We're having wayyyy too much fun, right!!!  So here is block 11!  Kits are also available for that online as well!!  Hope you like it!  It's my FAV block so far!  

It's so festive for this time of year!!!!

                                      

To go along with the Christmas theme... I want to share with you my favorite poinsettia mat that I made!  It's been around for a few Christmas'!  But I just love it!  It comes in a pattern of {3} called 3 Holiday patterns in One!  Instead of $12 it will be $6.00!  Here is the link to click and order it!
http://www.buttermilkbasin.com/shop/NEW-Misc-Pattern-Releases.htm

 

It's time to wrap up the hop with my Holiday recipe!  This is a tasty one and a unique offering to go along side of your tried &true Holiday favorites!  Happy Holidays!  Stop back soon!  There is always fun stuff, happenings & giveaways  going on at the Basin!!!!!!!

Today was a super busy day at the Basin!  It was also a perfect day to work late!  It was chilly and rained all day!  It's so different then yesterday!  Yesterday I did a photo shoot with the girls for our Chrisrnas cards!  It was sunny & gorgeous out!  It made for great photos!  I'm happy to say our Christmas card is designed and being printed!  So excited!  Can you believe Christmas is just about a month away?  I can hear those sleigh bells jingling now!!!!

Up today is Lisa, from Primitive Gatherings!  I know she's had a lot on her plate, including getting ready for her shop's Holiday open house... so I'm excited she was able to make time to be a part of the hop!  We all appreciate it!!!   Be sure to check out her recipe, too!  I think it sounds amazing!  Anything with PB, Rice Krispies and chocolate has to be yummy!  I can't wait to make this!

Today on the hop brings a new friend of mine.... Who will it be?!?

Who would think that {Day 10} on the blog hop would bring a snowflake kite!  Don't you just love it!  Of course... Only Meg would think of that!!!  Too cute!  Here's the stitchery pattern she shared, so make sure you go to her site and get the pattern!  It's sooo cute... you can keep it out all winter long!!!

Up today on our lovely Christmas JOY blog hop is a long time friend of mine, Joan, from Bits and Pieces by Joan!  She's a California girl who loves working in wool!  She's not a blogger or facebooker {yet}... but she does great designs and offers them through her website!  So make sure you go there to get another great pattern for the Holidays!!!

***Edited at 2pm 11/16.  Sorry there is no project up on the site as of yet.  I'm assuming Joan will get something up at some point today.  Thanks for your emails/concerns!

When we were at market Joan made fresh peanut brittle!  It was delicious!  She also made it with cashews!  Not sure if this is the recipe she uses, but I thought I would share it with you!  My mom also made this growing up!  I remember her making many batches of it and my dad and I would deliver it, along with other Holiday goodies to family & friends during the Holiday Season!  So fun!  See you again tomorrow!!!!

It's Meg's day today on the hop!!

Happy Sunday!  Its hard to believe we only have 4 days left of the hop!  Time sure flies when you are having fun!  Speaking of fun... did you enjoy Pam, from Heartspun Quilts little Santa!?!  I sure did!  It sounds like she likes to whip stitch instead of blanket stitching!  The great part... either one works very well... so do what you prefer!  And how about that stuffed mushroom recipe?  I'm betting a lot of you will be trying out that recipe!!!!

Today was a very busy day!  The majority of the day included getting a new furnace and air conditioner in!  We upgraded and are already feeling the difference!  So excited to "be warm" as winter could be here any day!  Then this afternoon we drove down for Gracie's dance comp.  it was their first one of the year!  Always a great time!

Now back to the hop!  Up on this lovely Sunday for {Day 10} of the hop is Meg, from Crabapple Hill!  She's our stitcher girl!  I'm predicting "winter flurries & happy snowmen" to warm your heart!  If you're new to Meg's work... she has established an amazing technique that combines coloring & stitching!  It's so awesome!  So be sure to click the link and go enjoy a day of stitching & hot cocoa!!!  Enjoy!

Here is another fantastic appetizer recipe from Meg!  We sure are getting a great array of recipes!  So exciting!  See you back here tomorrow as the hop continues....

Who is up today, {Day 9} of our Christmas JOY blog hop?

Welcome back to our celebration of Christmas JOY!  It was so great to see Kathy's "joyous" project!  I don't know about you, but I give a lot of gift cards away during the Holiday Season!  I think this was a great idea!  How perfect would this be to give to your woodie friends or sewing pal?  Plus, they could use it as an ornament and tuck in a little letter from Santa!!!  How cute would that be hanging on your tree!  That's what's so fun... we all love to inspire!!!!  Please make sure to stop back at Kathy, from the Cottage at Cardiff Farms if you missed this!

Today I snuck out after I picked up Hannah from school with my friend Laura.  We went to a boutique and then to a gift store.  It was so fun!  I picked up a few handmade items to give as gifts, 2 boxes of vintage Christmas ornaments & 5 vintage Christmas corsages {can't leave any of those behind!}!!!  Then at the gift store I purchased a few more gifts!  I'm so excited to be starting early this year!!!  I know it's not "that" early... But typically I start after Thanksgiving and then I feel so rushed!  I've already got my style down of wrapping/embellishing so I'm ready to start wrapping!!! Lol!  Tis the season!!!!!

Up today on {Day 9} of our Christnas JOY blog hop is Pam, from Heartspun Quilts!  Since I've seen a little sneak peek... I will tell you it could be a design of a jolly old fellow!  He may even wear a red suit and give toys to good girls & boys!!!!  I'm thinking you've got a good idea of what it could be...  so head over to her blog and see if you're correct!!!

Be sure to meet back here tomorrow for more blog hop goodness!!!

Christmas JOY Blog Hop is in full swing!

Oh my gosh!  One of my favorite parts about the blog hop is reading the posts that the designers write while posting their project!  Jeni's story was just priceless!  The poor tree & boys... thinking the tree fell down the river!!!  I can just see it now!   I love how they call it the "Griswald Family Christmas Story!"  I'm betting it's a story none of them will ever forget!!!  Thanks Jeni for sharing that great Holiday memory with us all!  

Here's Jeni's project!  It's super cute!  Make sure you print it off and add it to your collection!!!!  

As I've been following along on our Christmas JOY hop... I've been wondering how many of you have been starting on some of these darling projects!  I was also thinking how neat it would be to have a little section {including a little tree} to dedicate to our Chrsimas blog hops that we've done the last few years!  If any of you have made some projects from this hop or previous hops and displayed them... Please share pictures of them to our Buttermilk Basin  Facebook page!  We'd love to see them!!!

Up today on {Day 8} is Kathy, from The Cottage at Cardiff Farms!  I'm glad she's a part of the hop again, as she's been quite busy!  She recently moved and is now closer to her daughter!  And... I'm so excited that she found the perfect home with a little cottage on it!  I'd love to have a little cottage on our property too!!!  You don't see many of them here in the Twin Cities!  I'll just have to keep it on my bucket list!  Have fun hopping over to her blog!
